Safety

Weight Restriction ***PLEASE READ***

One of the cornerstones of the Pop Warner philosophy on safety for players has to do with weight restriction. Children are divided into divisions by age as well as by weight. This is important because it prevents children that are either too heavy or too light from participating in certain divisions. We believe that this is crucial to the safety of young players while they are still learning the game. In a non-weight restricted league there are no guidelines for players weight. It is not uncommon in one of these leagues to have some players in the same division double (and sometimes more) the weight of other players they are competing against. Westlake Pop Warner does not believe this is a safe environment to teach young players the game of football. Westlake Pop Warner is the ONLY tackle football league in Westlake that demands weight restriction for player safety.
